OXFORD, United Kingdom and MARLBOROUGH, Mass., Aug. 01, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
Oxford Immunotec Global PLC (Nasdaq:OXFD), a global, high-growth diagnostics
company focused on developing and commercializing proprietary tests for the
management of underserved immune-regulated conditions, today announced second
quarter 2017 financial results.

"We delivered a strong second quarter with revenue growth that exceeded the top
end of our guidance range," said Dr. Peter Wrighton-Smith, Chief Executive
Officer of Oxford Immunotec. "As we continue our evolution from a single-product
company to a multi-product company, we are pleased to see solid growth in our
core tuberculosis (TB) business as well as a strong contribution from our
accelerating tick-borne disease franchise."

((1) )Changes in revenue include the impact of changes in foreign currency
exchange rates. We use the non-GAAP financial measure "constant currency basis"
in our filings to show changes in our revenue without giving effect to period-
to-period currency fluctuations. We consider the use of a period over period
revenue comparison on a constant currency basis to be helpful to investors, as
it provides a revenue growth measure free of positive or negative volatility due
to currency fluctuations.

Settlement with Statens Serum Institut

During the quarter, we reached a settlement over a dispute regarding our license
agreement with Statens Serum Institut (SSI). The terms of the settlement are
confidential, however, we expect this settlement to result in a 300-400 basis
point improvement in future TB gross margins.

Second Quarter 2017 Financial Results

Revenue for the second quarter of 2017 was $26.1 million, representing 36%
growth over second quarter 2016 revenue of $19.2 million. On a constant currency
basis, revenue growth was also 36% versus the prior year period. Tuberculosis
revenue for the second quarter of $21.3 million increased 12% over the prior
year period.

2017 second quarter product revenue was $10.4 million, representing a 12%
increase from product revenue of $9.3 million in the second quarter of 2016. The
increase was primarily driven by sales of tick-borne disease kits as well as
growth in Asia. Service revenue for the second quarter of 2017 was $15.7
million, up 59% from 2016 second quarter revenue of $9.9 million. The increase
in service revenue was primarily driven by tuberculosis volume increases in the
United States as well as revenues from our tick-borne disease testing business.

United States revenue was $16.1 million in the second quarter of 2017,
representing 65% growth over revenue of $9.8 million in the prior year period.
The increase was due to growth in our core tuberculosis business as well as the
additional contribution from our tick-borne disease business.

Europe & ROW revenue was $1.9 million in the second quarter of 2017,
representing a 2% decrease compared to the second quarter of 2016. On a constant
currency basis, Europe & ROW increased 3% versus the second quarter of 2016. The
increase was primarily due to TB growth, particularly in the UK, and sales of
tick-borne disease kits.

Asia revenue was $8.1 million in the second quarter of 2017, representing an
increase of 9% over 2016 second quarter revenue of $7.4 million. On a constant
currency basis, Asia increased 8% versus the second quarter of 2016. The
increase was due to the timing of orders in China and increasing sales in South
Korea.

Gross profit for the second quarter of 2017 was $13.6 million, an increase
of $3.1 million over gross profit of $10.5 million in the same period of 2016.
Gross margin was 52.2%, a decrease of 290 basis points from the gross margin of
55.1% in the second quarter of 2016. The second quarter gross margin performance
reflects an underlying improvement in TB margins offset by the addition of our
tick-borne disease businesses, which carry lower gross margins.

Operating expenses were $31.4 million in the second quarter of 2017, an increase
of $13.5 million compared to $17.9 million in the same period last year. The
increase in operating expenses was largely due to the inclusion of a one-time
charge related to the SSI settlement as well as expenses related to our BLA
submissions and ongoing patent litigation.

Net loss for the second quarter of 2017 was $16.8 million, or $0.74 per share,
compared to $6.4 million, or $0.29 per share, in the second quarter of 2016. Net
loss per share was based on 22,805,379 and 22,351,645 weighted average ordinary
shares outstanding for the second quarters of 2017 and 2016, respectively.

EBITDA for the second quarter was $(17.4) million compared to $(5.8) million in
the second quarter of 2016. Adjusted EBITDA was $(6.3) million for the second
quarter compared to $(5.3) million in the same period in 2016. Both EBITDA and
Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures.

Business Outlook

We expect to report revenue of between $29.5 and $30.5 million for the third
quarter of 2017.

We now expect to report full year 2017 revenue of between $103 and $106 million,
representing 20% - 23% year-over-year growth. We expect revenue to increase
approximately 21% to 24% for the year using constant exchange rates. This
compares to prior revenue guidance of between $102 and $105 million.

(
(1) )EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures that we calculate as net
loss, adjusted for the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters that
we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations. We believe that
these measures provide useful information to investors in understanding and
evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and Board
of Directors. Our presentation of these measures is not made in accordance with
U.S. GAAP, and our computation of these measures may vary from others in the
industry. Our use of these measures has limitations as an analytical tool, and
you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our
results as reported under U.S. GAAP.

The above table presents a reconciliation of net loss, the most comparable U.S.
GAAP measure, to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for each of the periods indicated.
